Braselton is in the processing of updating the town’s development code with the help of Atlanta-based consultants TSW. This year-long process will continue the conversation from the Comprehensive Plan.

The town’s development code helps determine what type of development is allowed (residential, commercial, industrial, etc.), where it is allowed, and at what density it is allowed. The code also controls how new development looks and works, including building materials, parking, and landscaping.

The public is invited to participate in an online community meeting that began Dec. 4 and will be available through Dec. 18 at www.braseltondevelopmentcodeupdate.com.

Questions: Kevin Keller at kdkeller@braselton.net or 706-654-3915 ext. 1006.
